Make no bones about it, New Yorker's love their dogs. You'd be hard pressed to walk a block without bumping into a Frenchie, Jack Russell or Labrador hotfooting it to the local doggy park. And it's not just the pups that are loving their doggy park experience. Dog owners throughout NY are connecting with other owners and creating a community, meeting people, friends, lovers - all through the shared experience of letting their dogs run wild.
Hey Walkies is a website and iphone application designed to bring people and puppies together. While dog owners may know the whereabouts of dog parks in their own neighborhoods, as of yet there is not a resource for locating dog parks around the city. Hey Walkies helps owners find parks for their dogs to play in wherever they may be in NYC. Hey Walkies also taps into Facebook, bringing the world's largest social network to the people and pups that use our site.
